{{RecipeIngredients
| 450 g ( 1 lb) [[Dried|dried]] yellow [[Peas|peas]] or split-peas
| 2 medium [[Onions|onions]] peeled and finely chopped
| 225 g (8 oz) lean [[Bacon|bacon]]
| ¼ teaspoon [[Dried|dried]] [[Marjoram|marjoram]]
| ½ teaspoon [[Dried thyme|dried thyme]]
| 1 [[Bay leaf|bay leaf]]
| [[Salt]] and [[Freshly ground black pepper|freshly ground black pepper]] to taste (you probably won't need any salt if you are using salty [[Bacon|bacon]])
| 1 teaspoon [[wholegrain mustard]] to serve
}}
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Soak the [[Dried peas|dried peas]] for 12 hours (overnight) in plenty lots of cold water. I like to change the water and rinse a few times if I remember.
| In the morning, drain and rinse a few times in cold running water.
| To a large pan, add the chopped onions, drained [[Peas|peas]], 1.5 [[Litres|litres]] of cold water (2 litres if you like a thinner [[Soup|soup]]), the [[Bay leaf|bay leaf]], the [[Bacon|bacon]] or [[Ham|ham]]-[[Hocks|hocks]] and bring to the [[Boil|boil]].
| Once [[Boiling|boiling]], reduce the heat and [[Simmer|simmer]] for 30 minutes.
| After 30 minutes, skim any scum from the surface, add the [[Herbs|herbs]] and [[Simmer|simmer]] for a further 30 minutes.
| It won't hurt to cook for longer.
| When ready to serve, discard the [[Bay leaf|bay leaf]], cut the [[Meat|meat]] into bite sized pieces and add back to the [[Soup|soup]], discard any [[bones]].
| Pour into individual serving bowls, swirl in a teaspoon of [[wholegrain]] [[Mustard|mustard]] and serve.

'''Det är jättegott!'''
===Variations===
Instead of [[Bacon|bacon]] use a few [[ham-hocks]] or a meaty ham bone.

If using [[Fresh herbs|fresh herbs]] you can probably use a little more than if using [[Dried|dried]] [[Herbs|herbs]].
